Question : Problem: Trouble configuring cisco CSS 11500 series switch

I've got 3 Oracle 9i AS web servers.  I am trying to get my CSS11501 to handle the load-balancing.  I have the 3 web servers on a seperate subnet/VLAN as the rest of the network.  From one of the web servers behind the CSS switch, I can view the web page on all 3 servers if I type in the IP manually.

If I try and go through the CSS switch to view the web page (http://172.20.15.151:7778), I am not directed to any web site.  I just get a "this page cannot be displayed message".

Maybe I am doing something wrong here.  Maybe it's a server config issue.  any help would definitely be appreciated.

Here is an output of my running-config.

>It doesn't look like port 7778 is even open on the CSS.

It is not open, you have only defned keepalives on port 7778, if the server does not have server software running on port 7778 then the css will mark that server as down and not balance, it will take it out of rotation.

>Now I can port scan those IPs on 7778 and they come up as open, but it's not opening up a page yet.
Is the server http server running?

Is the server default route set?
